I work with adolescents and adults in both English and Spanish. My approach--customized for each person’s needs--focuses on creating safe, supportive relationships, opening space to explore difficulties and paving the way for real change. I have over a decade experience helping people experiencing anxiety, depression, adjustment, identity development and trauma build healthier, fulfilling lives. In therapy, I take a relational approach that focuses on process and using the therapeutic relationship to reach clinical goals.
I meet clients where they are, work collaboratively to understand struggles and use a supportive, strength-based approach to encourage movement toward goals.I have a trauma-informed lens and have extensive experience in doing trauma work, including using EMDR and IFS. Other Interventions include EMDR, CBT, DBT, play therapy.
It is an honor to be part of individual journey's and in all work together, I will always try to contextualize the individual's inner world, present environment as well as current circumstances and use these to help and support along the way. Taking this first step can sometimes be the toughest, yet most significant step you will take!
